Sabbatical Roadtrip Day 10

On Saturday we woke up and headed off to WALL, SD. I know you've probably never heard of it. It's a tourist trap in the middle of the heartland. We walked through about 100 gift shops to get to the back lot that had some great picture opportunities. Fun memories from 30 years ago. After a 20 minute stop we enjoyed a beautiful drive through the Badlands. Logan especially loved climbing all over the hills. After a gasoline stop and a Buffalo Hot dog we drove to the Minutemen Missile National Historic Site and learned about the Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles that were at the ready during the cold war. The boys got their Jr. Ranger badges before heading for Sioux Falls. We chased a lightning storm almost all the way to Paul's house and were amazed at the lightning and thunder. Busy day! OOps! I forgot yesterday we completed the license plate game finding all 48 contiguous United States! Ken found the last two right across from each other at Mt. Rushmore. As Jasper would say "Yeah Bacon!"
